Do you get the thing where you're parked by another car in a car park and it starts slowly reversing out of the spot and because your brain has for some reason decided to use it as its point of reference for motion you think your car is rolling forwards and you freak the fuck out? No, me neither.

Trans people (and antifascists, and everyone else) have been asking for locked accounts since day one to stop block evasion and prevent harassment/doxxing, which would so easy to institute, but no, we're going to get the big fucking Toxicity Abacus out and see who calls Aaron a cunt too much.

Personally I would not pick this fight with the youtube guy who demonstrates all the ways he can nail you with an arrow at 200 yards using his feet while wearing 12-inch Pleasers, whose wife can also kill you with her bare hands, and has 9 billionteen followers who are all trans women with swords.

Back in my *much* younger days I went home with a lovely young lady from a club. The next day at work I sent a message to my friend I'd been at the club with which was something like 'That girl I went home with last night was absolute filth. I think my back needs stitches' (This is NOT the kind...
Today I am on a PowerBI course. Last time I was on one, during a lunchbreak I sent a friend A Saucy Video I'd previously made. All fine and consenting and fun.
I then put my phone in my pocket, took it out a few moments later, and realised I hadn't locked it.
And it had forwarded. To five people.

Back in the 70's, when the lead singer of the Who had a mental breakdown, the rest of the band wanted him committed.
But his psychiatrist refused to do it because it says in the bible, "Thou Shalt Not Commit A Daltrey."

Meowing an enthusiastic hello.
Brushing first this way and that against his legs and asking to be picked up for a big snuggly hug.

At this point I don't know why Reform don't just promise everyone a pony and the power of flight in the first 100 days, because there's no way in hell they can do that either.

Orrr.... maybe the WM Police actually do some work, and go to the Reform Conference which is full of cameras and everyone has a name badge on.
